The Pre-Purchase Examination is a “moment in time” exam that includes a thorough physical examination of the horse, as well as a variety of ancillary tests tailored to the buyer’s intentions for the horse and their budget.

Our veterinarians will evaluate the horse’s performance during the evaluation and various tests, while also considering the horse’s age, history, and intended future use.

Through this exam our veterinarians provide the potential buyer with as much insight and data as possible, allowing buyers to make informed purchasing decisions.
